Got a message from a friend who could help me to do a kydex sheath.
It's about time Mr.Singh gets a new dress.

Pretty happy that i've got the skirt ready for Mr.Singh. He wanted it to be curvy.

Made a necker sheath and a protective sleeve for the Dead-On Annihilator tool.

Overall it was a very interesting session and Nadir, my kydex master had been extremely patient and helpful in making everything gravy and sound.

Many thanks to Nadir and his family!

Jay, that sheath is awesome! If you were in the states, I'd be sending khuks your way. What about Mr. Gelbu:)? Thanks for showing the awesome work. Take care.
 
Thanks for the pics. Very nice.

Now I kind of wish I had a Kydex sheath, there are time when I don't want to get my nice sheath wet, I like Kydex, it can take a beating.
 
Thanks everyone. It was just a struck of luck. Nadir gave me a lot of inputs.

I've got Steve Tall's Kami Fund sheath (Mr Gelbu is happy sleeping in it now) but at 18", ASTK would need something longer so i thought why not try a kydex?
